Editsub review
Editsub combines broad subtitle tools, collaboration, and a low-cost annual Pro plan.
Reviewed by iTechGuides Editors · Editorial team · Updated Oct 2026
Editsub is a subtitle workspace for content creators, video editors, educators, and language learners. It combines subtitle text and timing edits with video preview, transcription from local video or audio, translation to more than 100 languages, format conversion, and subtitle cleaning. Projects can be saved in cloud storage, and the service is available across web, iOS, Android, Windows, macOS, and Linux.
The free plan covers core subtitle workflows, including free video-to-subtitle minutes each month, editing, conversion, translation, cleaning, AI translations, and exports in SRT, VTT, TXT, and other formats. It supports up to 10 subtitle files. Pro costs $4 per user per month when billed annually and adds 1,500 credits each month, realtime subtitle editing, realtime collaboration chat, AI subtitle enhancement, a priority transcription queue, and unlimited subtitle file storage. One-time credit packs are also available: the Starter pack provides 1,000 credits for $5, while the Standard pack provides 5,000 credits for $20; both never expire.
Editsub’s strongest fit is for teams or individuals who need several subtitle tasks in one workspace rather than a narrowly focused editor. Its AI co-pilot addresses timing, reading-speed, and transcription issues, while support for SRT, VTT, ASS, SSA, and SBV helps with common subtitle-file workflows. Buyers should choose it when cross-platform access, translation, transcription, and collaboration matter together. Users who need more than 10 files on the free plan will need Pro or another paid option, and teams that require realtime editing or collaboration must select Pro.
